Lesson Summary

Wisdom includes grasping all relevant factors and reaching the best conclusion. God’s knowledge and wisdom are unlimited; human wisdom is derivative and partial. Creation displays God’s wisdom, Christ embodies God’s wisdom, Scripture communicates His wisdom, and the Spirit enables believers to live wisely. God’s truth is not merely correct—it represents what is ultimately best.
